Hi there!

We use the comment feature (C) a lot in Figma for feedback and collaboration across the team, but it doesn’t work well for tracking design tasks or to-dos.

Right now we misuse comments for task tracking, which creates clutter and causes important items to get lost. Also, not all tasks should be visible to the wider team outside design team.

What we’re missing is a simple task system for designers! Nothing heavy — just a clean way to track internal design tasks without mixing them into comments.

Here an example 🙂

Task

For example a ‘Task tool’ similar to a comment tool with features like:

  • text field
  • assign to @name
  • mark as done
  • optional priority (high)

 

This would significantly improve workflow for design teams. Thanks! 🙏

This would be great. Having to use external tools for this gets messy. It would be good to be able to right click a comment and turn it into a task quickly too - keeping it’s link to the comment.

Great idea. With AI, multiple tasks could even be generated automatically from a comment.
